When the local council suggested that St Chad's Cathedral should be demolished, Victor Pasmore proposed that a new cathedral should be constructed in its place. He said that this new building would be a masterpiece and it would become a centerpiece of civic life as well as a commanding presence on the townscape. Opened in 1964, St Chad's is still regarded as a triumph of postwar architecture and Victor Pasmore was knighted the following year for saving one of Britain's finest cathedrals from destruction.

A very nice kirche right outside city center. Beautiful architecture. Murals are preservex with many many on walls, pillars and above door arches. Nicest photos at dusk because the sun goes down on the side where the door is. It has recently opened up for limited entrance but never the less opened up after a long time.

Church services are available as normal without COVID restrictions. Thank God for giving us freedom to worship in church

Very Beautiful Cathedral. If you are attending the second mass on Sunday, you will hear the amazing sound of the organ from the back of the Cathedral.

If you love Pugin, you will love this. Not over the top but tall and graceful. Lovely 16th c Wood statue of the wonderful St Chad. Catholic.

Beautiful catholic church . Went during the St.Bernadette relic tour in the UK . Great spiritual experience.

Tiny but nice Catholic church !

One of landmarks in Birmingham beautiful piece of Art

Lovely building. Could do with offering an Extraordinary Mass.

CHAD

Beautiful church inside and outside always great service here. I find great peace and solace attending this church

Beautiful building

Heavenly

Roman Catholic cathedral but all denominations are welcome to the services. There are events throughout the year just see the newsletter on the website

The Cathedral is beautiful. We had the privilege of attending Mass for the sick and being able to pray at St Bernadette Relics. Very emotional came out feeling totally blessed. It was wonderful 🙏

We went to see the Saint Bernadette relics tour. St Chad's cathedral was an excellent venue for the display. The cathedral is a beautiful place to worship or to visit.

Was a guest at a christening and a wedding. Breathtakingly beautiful church. With untouched features such as the stained windows and interior. Not many of such still standing.

At long last! Reopened after the #coronahoax lockdown. Albeit for private prayer only. No public services. Nevertheless, much appreciated once again.

I have passed this building on many occasions and must admit that,from the outside, it does not impress me I had the opportunity to go on a guided tour of the cathedral and found it to be a most interesting structure. It was designed by Pugin and he certainly wanted to create an impressive building. I had the opportunity to go to the crypt which is not normally open to the public and even found this to be a most interesting area of the cathedral. The guides were so knowledgeable and willing to answer questions,not only about the cathedral but also aspect of the Catholic faith.

Built in 1841 and is located in the city center. It is known for its Gothic Revival architecture and is considered a fine example of the style. The cathedral is also known for its beautiful stained glass windows and its impressive pipe organ. It is open to visitors and regularly hosts religious services and events. Next time you are in Birmingham, stop by at St Chad.

Nice location great stained glass

Beautiful Cathedral with a lovely atmosphere

A truly amazing place, very welcoming.

Beautiful Catholic Cathedral. Relics of St Bernadette were there, well organised and special experience to visit

we love chad. worship him in his church or else!!

The homily was well delivered and the parishioners were very friendly and accommodating.

It's my first time to visit this church and i feel so amazed on how beautiful it was.

St Chad is very solemn place to attend mass, I felt I'm drawn near to our Creator. The marshall are very organized.

Very calm and peaceful place inside city.

Nice quiet prayerful place. A decent compromise between the old style rather baroque designs these places were originally fitted out with, and the more modern minimalist style. The building looks a bit lost currently, in a bit of a post industrial wasteland, with new 21st centenary steel and glass beginning to move in, but perhaps (when all the rebuilding is done) the whole will be more harmonious. You can pray without distraction, and in safety.

I have passed this in the car many a time, but was on foot for the first time so went it. Beautiful church with lots of information about it scattered around. Serene and we'll maintained. Worth a visit

Great place for Mass if you are visiting Birmingham City Centre. 2nd time of visiting. First time they had the cathedral choir singing. Community is still wearing facemasks and they.have them available at the door.

Just loved the atmosphere of this church. Was blessed to be able to attend a sunday mass. Friendly people all around. Will definitely go again. 👍😊

Had an Insta meet at St Chad's Cathedral so first time inside. But had walked past and photographed outside before over the years. Was also rooms under ground we were allowed to photograph. Plenty of historic details going back to the 1840s.

Beautiful church, polite people. Quite and peaceful inside. I loved the Alter. Choir singing is amazing

Amazing,peaceful place!

I enjoyed this cathedreal a lot more than St Phllips, Birmingham after I failed to go into Bankholiday Monday on which the Google informed it is opened. I was the only person in the place, so peaceful and quiet. Only ground floor though, not the basement or the top(?)

This is the most beautiful cathedral in Birmingham offers free parking to. This is excellent to visit you are made to feel welcome everything! Is amazing here

Nice Cathedral. Personal reasons for visiting

A lovely Catholic cathedral that is well worth a visit, but us something of a hidden gem just outside the shopping area. The stained glass windows are beautiful and there is a very interesting story of a bomb coming through the roof in the war time, which is worth asking about. Look for the panel high in the middle ceiling.

Absolutely stunning Cathedral. Very helpful and obliging clergy and staff. Nothing was to much trouble.

Beautiful church to visit

Operating within covid-19 constraints and Governmental requirements for everyone's health & safety 🙏

Beautiful Cathedral situated in the heart of Birmingham. Well worth a visit.

It really is a beautiful Cathedral inside is exquisite.

In the middleof the city traffic, St. Chads is a place of calm, giving an ideal spot to reflect, and gather your thoughts.

What a great place with such kind works being performed daily by lovely people.

Attended a wedding nuptials at the cathedral. Beautiful and serene. The parish priest was so warm and welcoming. Would definitely recommend a visit.
